What are the key components used in transmission versus distribution?

2025-08-09

The components for each stage are designed to handle different voltage levels and environmental demands.

  • Transmission Systems are built with robust components, including large conductors, insulators, and hardware specifically engineered to manage high voltage and minimize energy loss over long distances. Substations play a crucial role in stepping down the voltage for the distribution grid. Our products, such as OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners, pullers, and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Stringing-Blocks--Sheaves.html target='_blank'>Stringing Blocks, are critical for the safe and efficient installation of these high-voltage transmission lines.

  • Distribution Systems utilize smaller, more localized equipment, including smaller-gauge wires, poles, distribution transformers, and protection devices. This equipment is designed to be more flexible and accessible for connecting to individual customers. Our company supplies a wide range of overhead tools and accessories as well as underground cable laying equipment that are vital for building and maintaining this intricate network.
